Forest City Realty Trust principally engages in the operation, development, management and acquisition of office, apartment and retail real estate and land. Co.'s segments include: Office, which owns, acquires and operates office and life science buildings; Apartments, which owns, acquires and operates upscale and middle-market apartments and adaptive re-use developments; and Retail, which owns, acquires and operates amenity retail within its mixed-use properties; Development, which develops and constructs office and life science buildings, apartments, condominiums and mixed-use projects; and Other, which owned and operated non-core investments. We show 10 historical shares outstanding datapoints in our FCE.A shares outstanding history coverage, used to compute FCE.A market cap on those dates.
Understanding the changing numbers of shares outstanding, the changing
share price, and the resulting changing FCE.A market cap history over the course of time is important for investors
interested in comparing FCE.A's market cap history versus its peers.
Many "beginner" or "novice" investors will look at one stock trading at a price of $10 per share and another trading at
a price of $20 per share and think the latter company is worth twice as much. Of course, that is a completely meaningless comparison without also knowing how many shares outstanding there are for each of the two companies,
and then calculating their respective market caps. Comparing the share price of FCE.A versus a peer is one thing; comparing
FCE.A market cap versus a peer is a completely different story.
Furthermore, via fluctuation both in per-share price and in the number of shares outstanding (via issuance of new shares over time, the repurchase of existing shares),
the market cap for a company like FCE.A can fluctuate over the course of history.
With this page we aim to empower investors researching FCE.A by allowing them to research the FCE.A market cap history. |
